Presumably drawn in Sicily, 1804
'From Schinkel's journey to Italy and Sicily, begun in 1803 - and concluded in 1805 - some 400 drawings, for the most part carefully executed, have survived. They testify to the way Schinkel, schooling eye and hand, developed a way of seeing landscape'. (H. Börsch-Supan in the catalogue of the exhibition, Karl Friedrich Schinkel, The Victoria and Albert Museum, London, 31 July-27 Oct., 1991, p. 13)
'In those years Schinkel swung between seeing himself as more of a painter or more of an architect - most of his landscape paintings were, however, done before 1815 and his skill as a painter and his Romantic outlook became highly developed'. (G. Riemann, op. cit., p. 94) These works are reminiscent of the landscapes of Caspar David Friedrich.
